The amount of trash on the beach -- probably washed in from offshore -- was appalling. The weather was furnacial. We left at 1640. Piping #2; color-banded: 4M on a black flag, |

I've just made a field "Bands observed on second animal" to deal with instances where there are two banded individuals in a photo.
